8 How To Use Getting Started Using your Vornado Heater is easy. Just follow these simple steps. 1. Position your heater so the vortex beam of warm air is directed across the room unobstructed. Position it in a location that is representative of the room temperature. The unique side-angled air inlets allow the heater to be placed closer to walls than possible with most ordinary heaters (but do not place close to combustibles). Avoid areas of temperature extremes such as cold drafts and heat registers (refer to IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS for safe placement). 2. Plug power cord into a standard wall outlet. 3. Press the Power switch On. The amber light will be on anytime the Power is On. 4. Set the mode switch to High or Low Heat, or select the center position on the switch for Fan Only. Resetting Your Vornado Heater Your Vornado Heater has a multi-level safety shut-off system designed to prevent overheating.

Remove any obstructions. 3. Wait 5 10 minutes, allowing the unit to cool down. 4. Plug in the unit and place in desired position. 5. Turn the Power switch On.
